Aug 16 15:05:09 tchung jmbuser, how's it going with your event(GITEX) prep? Aug 16 15:05:46 jmbuser tchung: We now have 2-3 volunteers and tomorrow is the deadline to turn in names. Aug 16 15:06:18 jmbuser I was asked to prepare a 20-minute booth presentation.

Aug 16 15:09:12 tchung jmbuser, do you have anything else to add? Aug 16 15:10:23 jmbuser tchung: I guess we need 6 or so Fedora shirts and any other items deemed appropriate.
